The partnership will improve care for patients with pancreatic cancer
myTomorrows, a global health technology company connecting patients with all possible treatment options, has announced a new partnership with Pancreatic Cancer Europe, a multi-stakeholder platform that brings together experts from all over Europe to improve care for patients with pancreatic cancer.
Through the new partnership, Pancreatic Cancer Europe (PCE) will utilise myTomorrows’ database of ongoing clinical trials to equip patients, caregivers and healthcare professionals (HCPs) with up-to-date, accessible information about pre-approval treatments that may be relevant to them.
The partnership with the European patient advocacy group and myTomorrows will help to expand access to all possible treatment options for patients suffering from a variety of life-threatening illnesses. For pancreatic cancer patients and HCPs, the partnership will help make the process of identifying and understanding the existing clinical trial options easier.
Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer deaths, with a life expectancy of only 6-12 months at time of diagnosis and a five-year survival rate of only 10%. The many challenges associated with pancreatic cancer include a lack of awareness about the disease among the public, difficulty in diagnosis, which is late, treatment resistance to chemo and radiation therapy, poor survival rates, and limited treatments. Therefore, it is crucial for patients to be as accurately and thoroughly informed as possible about their treatment options – especially clinical trials, which are often difficult to find, understand and navigate.
